#cooperatives
Media cooperatives have flourished in the last decade. But they can’t face the structural crisis of journalism alone.

Les syndicats agricoles de droite qui défendent les grosses coopératives plutôt que les agriculteurs ne participeront pas au mouvement !? C'est étonnant...

Seeing how much advertising data is being sold/ in cooperatives with global surveillance like palantir, sold/auctioned via meta means they've bypassed consumer agency.
Classists are against guaranteed income because they prefer data collecting through non consensual coercion rather than ethical consumerism.
I don't want a $20 settlement. I want enough to be able to afford to live since data is being sold off to advertisers by coercive, deceptive tactics everyday.

Mais oui. Barrez-vous ! Et nous transformons le tout en coopératives ouvrières.

Dégagez.

For those who would like the philosophical version of this argument, I defended “agonistic workplace democracy” recently. Most philosophy on worker cooperatives uses deliberative democratic theory, but it fails to properly consider conflicts over management.

He knew more than a half century ago. May Dr.King continue to inspire change for the better. #coops #cooperatives #social #equity #justice #fairness #livingwage #endcapitalism #endnato
From the Montgomery Bus Boycott to the Memphis sanitation workers’ strike, Dr. King and other movement leaders organized people to withdraw their labor, their money, and their participation from systems built on exploitation.

Food Power Politics by Bobby J. Smith II explores how food access was weaponized against Black voting rights—and how Black-led cooperatives and food drives built power and independence.

An essential read connecting civil rights history to today’s fight for food sovereignty.

Get an ownership stake in your work.
As a proud union card-carrying member, I know life is better in a union.

Imagine the potential if we invested more in cooperatives.

This sounds a little like indigenous shea butter cooperatives in Africa which are the anthropological example that convinced me to believe in indigenous communism.

Cybernetic cooperativism... If worker's cooperatives can reach a model of expanded MRP, rather than ERP systems, then that allows an escape from the liquidity trap of worker's cooperatives.

As sovereignty concerns rise, instead of only nationalizing key industries, we should look at worker cooperatives and employee ownership models instead

Part of what made online media companies so popular in the 2010s was that they had nothing to hide from their readers. More than pulling back the curtain, now might be the time to tear it down entirely.
